I just realized that it's been more than a week since I posted last. Sad day! There hasn't really been much to say of late, and I've been up to my eyeballs in homework and other craziness. However, I just wanted to mention a little something that I've just been thinking about for the past few minutes as I've been sitting here, trying to convince myself to do my homework.
Right now I'm sitting on my living room couch with my laptop on...well, on my lap. :) A few minutes ago, I happened to glance outside and had my breath momentarily taken away by what I saw: a beautiful snow-covered mountain with the sun hitting it just right to make it shine. Now, I grew up with mountains, so it's not like that sight is necessarily new to me. But it never gets old for me either. I love the mountains! And I'm just loving the beautiful fall weather and the sunshine too! Roll it all together, and I'm a pretty happy girl right now.
As I was staring at the beautiful view outside, a song came to my mind. It comes from the CD of songs from the 2010 Especially For Youth (EFY) program. The song is called "Walking in Sunlight."
It's a beautiful day, even though it's dark out there.
You've got sun on your face---take it with you everywhere!
And it warms your heart that's beating; it comes from believing.
And it's a beautiful, a beautiful feeling!
It's like walking in sunlight
When the whole world's covered in rainclouds.
You're walking in sunlight,
Finding the truth and living it out loud.
Yeah, when you know what's right,
It's like walking in sunlight, sunlight!
It's amazing to me how someone else can find
The light that they need radiating in your eyes.
Then it warms their heart that's beating, and suddenly you're leading them
To that beautiful, beautiful feeling!
It's like walking in sunlight
When the whole world's covered in rainclouds.
You're walking in sunlight,
Finding the truth and living it out loud.
Yeah, when you know what's right,
It's like walking in sunlight, sunlight!
It's easy to forget how blessed we are,
But life's better when we remember, when we remember.
It's like walking in sunlight
When the whole world's covered in rainclouds.
You're walking in sunlight,
Finding the truth and living it out loud.
Yeah, when you know what's right,
It's like walking in sunlight, sunlight!
Okay, so it's true that this song has very little to do with actual weather, but it's the song that came into my head when I was looking outside, and it has a beautiful message. I hope it brightens someone's day---it certainly brightened mine! :)
